About us

The OCD Clinic operates on a foundation of core values, with a focus on treating Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders.

We treat a variety of disorders, including skin picking, OCD, hoarding, emetophobia, anxiety disorders and body dysmorphic disorder. We enjoy working with clients across the lifespan.

We balance structured treatment programs alongside novel approaches, like Virtual Reality Therapy, to enhance outcomes and accessibility. We recognize the complexity of OCD and approach it with a strategy that embraces the individual as there is no “typical case”.

Upon entering our clinic, you’ll find a professional and warm atmosphere. We balance the seriousness of our work with a down-to-earth approach, reflecting our commitment to not just treating OCD but supporting you through every step of your recovery.

If you’re seeking a supportive team to guide you through your recovery, The OCD Clinic is ready to welcome you.

Our values

Our vision is to be the clinic of choice for Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders in Australia. We are guided by our values, and they provide a framework for our interactions with each other and our clients. Our values centre around:

INTEGRITY

We strive to demonstrate ethical principles in all that we do. Integrity is the foundation on which we build our therapeutic and collegial relationships. Trust and integrity is one of the fundamental values that we evaluate when reviewing new team members.

AUTHENTICITY

Is fundamental to our identity as clinicians and people. While attitudes can change, the ability to remain authentic to ourselves keeps us grounded and safe clinically. We are honest with our ideals and work hard to ensure our actions align with our values.

ACCOUNTABILITY

Accountability is all about responsibility and transparency. Responsibility begins with accepting where your client is at and delivering a well formulated treatment plan. Accountability shapes a culture of trust, transparency, and positivity. We encourage a culture of feedback from our clients and our team.

QUALITY

We take pride in providing quality service to our clients. We maintain rigorous training standards and supervision for all of our work. We genuinely care about the delivery of our service, ranging from administrative, psychological and after care. We want you to meet your expectations.
